What a Year!
Read: Matthew 6:31-34
It was bad when our good friend was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She has undergone chemo- and radiation, but she has the most wonderful positive attitude. She even baked and decorated her house beautifully for Christmas. We pray for her every day.
August 11 was very good. We celebrated our 50th anniversary by going out to dinner with our children and grandchildren. We were all together which made it so special. It was exactly what we wanted. Two days later, they had a surprise party (which we didn’t want), but it was great – kids, adults, relatives, friends and even college friends.
Thanksgiving at Heidi and Charlie’s is always a very special day for all of us. After dinner things weren’t so good. We were still at the table when Gary told us they were losing their business (which they had both worked so hard for). It was a blow.
But things turned better again when he said, “We’ll be okay. All that matters is the people sitting around this table. We have our health and we have each other”.
We have hope and we have faith.
What more can we ask?
